what is THE TURNING PROCESS?
Turning is a machining process where a lathe rotates the metal and a cutting tool removes the metal along the diameter to create a cylindrical shape.
This process can be done either manually, or with a CNC turning machine. The latter is often used when part measurements must be precise.
The tools used in this process include single-point cutting tools to remove the material from the rotating workpiece and a lathe or tuning machine. The cutting tools are mainly used for metals, such as alloy steel, carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, copper, magnesium, and aluminium. However, it can also be used on other materials like ceramics, composites, thermoplastics, and thermosets.
